American University.
New York: The case of Pooja Khedkar, who got the IAS job on the basis of fake documents, had not even cooled down when another similar case came to light, creating a stir. This time, following the footsteps of Pooja Khedkar, an Indian student took admission in a university in America with the help of fake documents. But now his fraud has been caught. Therefore, the Indian student will now have to return to India.
Let us tell you that the Indian student arrested for manipulating documents to get admission will be sent back to his country under an agreement with US authorities. Aryan Anand (19) had submitted fake documents to get admission in Lehigh University in Pennsylvania in the academic session 2023-2024. A report last month in ‘The Brown and White’, a newspaper published by Lehigh University students, said that the police investigation found that Anand had manipulated admission and financial aid documents. The report said that he had also “falsely claimed the death of his father” to get admission and scholarship.
Bail was granted on US$25,000
Anand was tried in the court of Magisterial District Judge Jordan Nisley, whose bail amount was 25 thousand US dollars. He was convicted of forgery. The website ‘lehighvalleylive.com’ quoted defense lawyer Molly Heidorn as saying that under the plea agreement Anand was sentenced to one to three months, ‘which is the same as the time he spent in jail’. Under this agreement Anand will have to return to India. Lehigh University did not demand compensation of 85,000 US dollars from the student. He was released and handed over to the officials of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
student caught like this
The whole case of manipulation of documents for admission by the student came to light when he shared a post on the social media platform ‘Reddit’, titled “I built my life and career on the foundation of lies.” Although, he did not reveal his identity in that post, but gave detailed information about the method of manipulation. Later Anand deleted that post, but police investigation revealed that this post was made by Anand. (Language)
